Foot Prints in the Sand
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking with
the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes of his life. For each
scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; one
belonged to him, and the other to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked
back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times
along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints.
He also noticed that it had happened at the very lowest and
saddest times in his life.
This really bothered the man and he questioned the Lord about
it. Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you, you'd walk with me all the way. But I
have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of
footprints. I don't understand why, when I needed you most, you would leave me.
The Lord replied, My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your
times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried
you."
Walk with Me Along the Ocean, I will carry you when you
need Me!
